HSSG Objectives
Define PAR (Project Authorisation Request) 5 Criteria to support the PAR
Broad Market Potential Compatibility with 802.3 standard Distinct Identity Technical Feasibility Economic Feasibility
Project objectives
e.g. multiple standards, different media interfaces
HSSG Focus
MAC Data Rate Discussion
40, 80, 100, 120, 160 Gbit/sec or scaleable? Faster serial speeds Aggregation (multi-lane) solutions
Multiple wavelengths (on a single fibre pair) Multiple fibres (multi-channel phy & ribbon cable) Could reuse existing 10GE components this way
Objectives Defined
IEEE 802 Plenary meeting, Dallas, 13-16th November 2006, defined:
Full duplex operation only Preserve 802.3/Ethernet frame format at the MAC client service interface Preserve min/max frame sizes as the current 802.3 standard Support a MAC/PLS speed of 100Gb/sec Support at least 10km on SMF (G.652) Support at least 100m on OM3 (laser optimised) MMF
Most importantly:
5 criteria strawman proposal
Demand Arguments
The argument is that 10Gig isnt successful
It hasnt grown at the same rate as FastE or GigE did (hardly surprising though)
FastE: 1M host interfaces 1 years from Standard GigE: 1M host interfaces ~2 years from Standard
Largely driven by 10/100/1000 copper ports

My Demand Argument
40Gig/sec Trunks!
My Demand Argument
What about 80 Gig/sec Trunks? 40Gig/sec Trunks!
Opto-electronics community
Maybe they just like the challenge? ;-)
Friday is the day for taking votes Hopefully the 5 criteria can either agreed up on, or at least more finely honed
The usual Ethernet scale-up criteria 10x bandwidth, approx 3x price
Fingers crossed that weve headed off the 40Gbit/sec camp, and get the 40km objective accepted!
